1 Kings 20:23-25

Expanded Bible

²³ Meanwhile the officers of Ben-Hadad king of Aram said to him, “The gods of Israel are mountain gods, so they were stronger. Let’s fight them on the ·flat land [plain], and then we will ·win [be stronger]. ²⁴ This is what you should do. ·Don’t allow the thirty-two rulers to command the armies, but [^LRemove the kings from their place/commands, and] put other commanders in their places. ²⁵ ·Gather [Recruit; Raise; Muster] an army like the one ·that was destroyed and as many horses and chariots as before [^Lyou lost, horse for horse and chariot for chariot]. We will fight the Israelites on ·flat land [the plain], and then we will ·win [be stronger].” Ben-Hadad ·agreed with their advice [^Lheeded their voice] and did what they said.
